She didn't want to get pinned down by her prior town
Get me to the train on time, here take this nickel make a
dime

Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave
What is at the other end, I don't know another friend
Another wife, another morning spent

Listen, listen to the auctioneer
Another engine, another engine


We never wrote the reasons that I need explained
Some things are givens, and others get away
This time its for myself you call it what you may

Okay, we won't say goodbye so long, so much more
Listen to the auctioneer
Another engine, another engine


Listen to the bargain holler
Listen to the barter holler

Listen to the auctioneer

Get me to the train on time here take this nickel make a dime

Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave
What is at the other end, an I don't know another friend
Another wife, another morning spent

Listen to the auctioneer
Another engine, another engine


Do I stand the bargain holler?
Listen to the barter holler
Listen to the auctioneer
